BILL MAULDINentered the Infantryin his nineteenth year, picked up a Purple Heart in Italy, and later was assigned as a combat artist in one of the bloodiest campaigns of the war.

His crusade lands him in plenty of hot water as he candidly describes in his book, Back Home (William Sloane, Associates), the November choice of the Hook-of-the-Month Club. of which this is an excerpt.
